Typically this is true but these bolts are channeled making it almost impossible to cross thread. You can feel it in the driver as you push up that it is seating before triggering the drill.
The video was great except it didn't cover the problem I ran into. The problem I encountered was that the fuel didn't stop draining. I found one piece of advice that said to make sure the fuel cap is removed, but the real problem turned out to be that the drain was siphoning the fuel out of my tank. I found a UA-cam that discussed this problem. It said to unbolt the fuel conditioning module to break the syphon. Another video said to disconnect the the connection between the tank and the fuel conditioning module. I ended up unbolting the fuel conditioning module, which immediately stopped the syphon. Unfortunately I did not know that I was only supposed to get 1/2 gallon of fuel out of the drain(even though it is in the owner's manual). So now I have about 4 gallons of diesel fuel I need to dispose of. Apparently this problem occurs if the truck has more than 3/4 of a tank of fuel. My truck is a 2021 F250 Supercab with a short box.
Dealing with this right now with a 21 450. Drained over 2 gallon of fuel before I got fed up and shut the valve back off. Now I’m here looking for answers. Yours seems to be the best one.
I think that when you have a full tank of fuel that the Superduties can get into a syphon situation. Probably doesn't happen much when 1/2 tank or less.
Didn’t lube the gasket with diesel and fully sent it via rattle gun without starting the threads with your fingers. Quality work will always top quick work. Take some pride in what you do. Way too many “can’t see it from my house” or “it’s not my rig” mentalities nowadays
Ford recommends every 60K. Some of the new trucks have a fuel filter monitor that will let you know. It may not hurt to change them once a year before winter in case you do have some water in your fuel you don't want to freeze up! hope that helps!
Good info you guys! Like how you guys just dive right in, no gloves and no over doing it! Right on.
Thank you for the great vid! I really appreciate it. PLEASE use nitrile gloves to mitigate dermal absorption of the fuel. Thanks again, guys!
Exactly why you should do your own work. Running bolts in with power vs starting thread first… ok
Not too difficult if u know what your doing
Something flew off. Probably a stripped screw

Doing it right how about cleaning the bowl out

Thats nuts, we’ve changed out a bunch of these and never had that happen

What is the correct part number for a 2021?
People say FD4625 but the manual says FD4631. I can’t find the 4631
Motorcraft part is FD-4641.
I work in the pit now so here I am. (Shell rapid lube)
Thanks for the video and not dragging it out and making a 20 minute video lol

The diesel that's soaking the external housing lubes it well enough lol!
What if I don’t have a key? It’s button press???
Press the button twice without pressing the pedal, it’s the same as turning the key
Same for 21 f250?
Yes sir same on a 2021, I just completed mine 1/2 hour ago. Takes less than 20 mins start to finish
Thanks for the info. Now how often do u change these expensive things lol

@@thepit2020 oh shit thats not bad. I thought it was every oil change
@@mattcaesar5781 No for sure not that often, if you're worried about do every 20k same time as your cabin filter

@@thepit2020 Jesus 60k no wonder people complain about the cp4 exploding on them. I do every 15k.
Smoke ‘em if you got ’em 🚬😂
Title says 2021 and in your video it's a 2017? I'm confused?
It's the same
Same part? 2021 manual says FD-4631.
Did you use 4625?
@@brianbutler9818 yes we used the 4625, they should be the same thing as far as I can see
I love you
Awkward…. Lol jk
How does it cost to have the fuel filters replaced?
Ford dealerships in East Tennessee charge $200
